Wearing Each Other's Clothes
"Hey, get out of those wet things and throw them in the dryer. I'll lend you some of my clothes," Sam called from the general location of where his dresser was. Ed didn't care – he was dripping wet, cold, and wanted nothing more than a hot shower. He walked toward the shower, stripping as he went, dropping his clothes on the floor. Still in his boxers when he arrived at the bathroom, Ed simply turned on the water and stepped in. He huddled down on the floor, sitting in the spray and soaking up the warmth. Ed was so unfocused that he didn't register the sound of the door opening until Sam sat beside him and pulled him into his arms. "What possessed you to go for a walk in the rain, darling?" Sam sat against the wall, legs splayed and gently tugged Ed between them.
"Wasn't raining when I started walking," Ed murmured, leaning back into Sam. Sam just sighed and wrapped his arms around Ed's torso, pressing his forehead against Ed's shoulder.
"You know, sometimes I'm glad you're pretty." Ed hummed in response, slowly warming back up. They sat under the spray for a while, waiting for Ed to stop shivering. When he finally stopped, Sam stood and shut the water off, tugging Ed to his feet. "Let's get you in something dry, yeah?" Sam said, guiding Ed out of the shower and into his room.
It took some doing, but Sam managed to convince Ed to remove his soaked boxers so that he could put on a pair of dry ones Sam had picked out. Sam dressed Ed in a pair of sweats and a sweatshirt that was actually clean before making him sit on the bed. "Just shut off that beautiful mind of yours and get some rest, yeah?"
"Alright."
